Animal deworming only results in temporary cures with little to no preventive effects; therefore, a strategy that combines animal deworming with prevention is essential in improving the control of helminths. The effectiveness of co-administrating curative and preventive agents and their compatibility were considered based on the parasitophagous fungus <i>Mucor circinelloides</i>, which was developed in edible agar-agar (red seaweed)-carrying dewormers. Accordingly, Petri dishes were prepared with either a biopolymer alone (control, G-C) or with the anthelmintic piperazine (550, 1102, 2210, and 5500 mg/plate) or levamisole (37.5, 75, 150, and 300 mg/plate) and were used to culture the fungus <i>Mucor circinelloides</i>. Strong fungal growth and high numbers of spores were observed in the presence of the anthelmintics. No differences were measured between the control plates and those containing parasiticide drugs. Similar mycelial growth patterns and sporogenesis rates were recorded for different amounts of each anthelmintic. In conclusion, this novel formulation based on biopolymers containing anthelmintics and enriched with the parasitophagous fungus represents a highly promising tool to consider for jointly deworming animals and minimizing the risks of helminth infection.

Freeze-thaw (F-T) resistance, which has a profound influence on the service life of structures, is a crucial indicator for assessing the durability of geopolymer composites (GCs). Consequently, comprehending the F-T resistance of GCs is of the utmost significance for their practical implementation. In this article, a comprehensive and in-depth review of the F-T resistance of GCs is conducted. This review systematically synthesizes several frequently employed theories regarding F-T damage, with the aim of elucidating the underlying mechanisms of F-T damage in geopolymers. The factors influencing the F-T resistance of GCs, including raw materials, curing conditions, and modified materials, are meticulously elaborated upon. The results indicate that the F-T resistance of GCs can be significantly enhanced through using high-calcium-content precursors, mixed alkali activators, and rubber aggregates. Moreover, appropriately increasing the curing temperature has been shown to improve the F-T resistance of GCs, especially for those fabricated with low-calcium-content precursors. Among modified materials, the addition of most fibers and nano-materials remarkably improves the F-T resistance of GCs. Conversely, the effect of air-entraining agents on the F-T resistance of GCs seems to be negligible. Furthermore, evaluation and prediction models for the F-T damage of GCs are summarized, including empirical models and machine learning models. In comparison with empirical models, the models established by machine learning algorithms exhibit higher predictive accuracy. This review promotes a more profound understanding of the factors affecting the F-T resistance of GCs and their mechanisms, providing a basis for engineering and academic research.</p>","PeriodicalId":12506,"journal":{"name":"Gels","volume":"11 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12294357/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144707096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, human plasma-derived fibrin hydrogels serve as 3D matrices for autologous skin graft production, skeletal muscle repair, and bone regeneration. Nevertheless, for advanced applications such as in vitro skin equivalents and engineered grafts, the intrinsic limitations of native fibrin hydrogels in terms of long-term mechanical stability and resistance to degradation need to be addressed to enhance the usefulness and application of these hydrogels in tissue engineering. In this study, we chemically modified plasma-derived fibrin by incorporating succinimidyl alginate (SA), a version of alginate chemically modified to introduce reactive succinimidyl groups. These NHS ester groups (N-hydroxysuccinimide esters), attached to the alginate backbone, are highly reactive toward the primary amine groups present in plasma proteins such as fibrinogen. When mixed with plasma, the NHS groups covalently bond to the amine groups in fibrin, forming stable amide linkages that reinforce the fibrin network during hydrogel formation. This chemical modification improved mechanical properties, reduces contraction, and enhanced the stability of the resulting hydrogels. Hydrogels were prepared with a final fibrinogen concentration of 1.2 mg/mL and SA concentrations of 0.5, 1, 2, and 3 mg/mL. The objective was to evaluate whether this modification could create a more stable matrix suitable for supporting skin tissue development. The mechanical and microstructure properties of these new hydrogels were evaluated, as were their biocompatibility and potential to create 3D skin models in vitro. Dermo-epidermal skin cultures with primary human fibroblast and keratinocyte cells on these matrices showed improved dermal stability and better tissue structure, particularly SA concentrations of 0.5 and 1 mg/mL, as confirmed by H&E (Hematoxylin and Eosin) staining and immunostaining assays.

At room temperature, silica aerogels in particular exhibit ultralow thermal conductivity (<0.02 W/m·K), which is two to three times lower than that of still air (0.026 W/m·K). Their brittle skeleton and high infrared transparency, however, restrict how well they insulate, particularly at high temperatures (>300 °C). Incorporating microscale fibers into the aerogel matrix enhances mechanical strength and reduces radiative heat transfer by increasing scattering and absorption. For instance, it has been demonstrated that adding glass fibers reduces radiative heat transmission by around 40% because of increased infrared scattering. This review explores the fundamental mechanisms governing radiative heat transfer in fiber-aerogel composites, emphasizing absorption, scattering, and extinction coefficients. We discuss recent advancements in fiber-reinforced aerogels, focusing on material selection, structural modifications, and predictive heat transfer models. Recent studies indicate that incorporating fiber volume fractions as low as 10% can reduce the thermal conductivity of composites by up to 30%, without compromising their mechanical integrity. Key analytical and experimental methods for determining radiative properties, including Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and numerical modeling approaches, are examined. The emissivity and transmittance of fiber-aerogel composites have been successfully measured using FTIR spectroscopy; tests show that fiber reinforcement at high temperatures reduces emissivity by about 15%. We conclude by outlining the present issues and potential avenues for future research to optimize fiber-aerogel composites for high-temperature applications, including energy-efficient buildings (where long-term thermal stability is necessary), electronics thermal management systems, and aerospace (where temperatures may surpass 1000 °C), with a focus on improving the materials' affordability and scalability for industrial applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":12506,"journal":{"name":"Gels","volume":"11 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12296195/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144707090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
